Through the Birkental

From the parking lot towards Nesselwängle to the underpass. After the underpass, turn left, parallel to the road and follow the signs to Rauth and into the Birkental. On the Dillinger path (long exposed and rope-secured sections at the beginning of the Dillinger path) it passes huts (Höflishütte and Birkentaler Jägerhütte), crossing streams and across pasture areas up to the Lachenjoch. Wonderful view of the Lache and the Landsberger hut. From the Lachenjoch, turn right on the Saalfelder Höhenweg to the Ziegerstein and continue under the Schochenspitze towards the Gappenfelder Alm. Past the Sulzspitze, over the Strindenscharte into the Strindental. The Strindenalm and Edenbachalm are still on the way before continuing to the Haldensee. Back in the valley, we turn sharply right. On the left side of the path is the outdoor pool at the Haldensee, inviting you to swim or take one last short break. Continue on the gravel road along the Haldensee. Shortly before Nesselwängle there is a small ascent through the forest, then it only goes downhill, first to the lifts of Nesselwängle and then back to our starting point, the parking lot at the lift at the east end of Nesselwängle.

Personal mountain sports equipment must be safe and functional and meet the respective technical standard. Every hiker is advised to inform themselves about the planned tours in alpine specialist literature or on site.

It should be noted that mountain sports can carry an increased risk of accidents and injuries. Despite careful route planning, there is always a basic risk. Preparing for the tour through endurance training, appropriate technical training and education as well as personal caution reduces the risk of accidents and hazards. But never forget that the weather in the mountains can change very quickly. Stay on the marked hiking paths.
